    Snit can only pinch hit for someone if they're gonna play that same position the next inning. Why Mac wasn't up there for Riley made zero sense.

    Why in the f would you let Riley hit there with 3 LHHs available? Snit should be yelled at by AA

    Ozzie's going to be kicking himself when he sees that pitch location. He had a fastball RIGHT DOWN BROAD STREET....pop up instead of a well hit ball. That's NOT the pitch to be taking.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    We had an off day yesterday, and an offday on Thursday coming.

    Why you throw Parsons in a high leverage situation makes zero sense. So yeah, we can pin that on Snit. And not pinch-hitting for Riley there was also a bad move when you have a deep bench. Ender or Mac should've taken that AB because they can actually make contact at least.

    Riley is embarassing. I don't think not swinging at fastballs at your eyes is something that can be learned. That's just stupid. He does it every time.

    Kennedy and Diekman could help us. And I'm not saying that just because of tonight's game. Hill looked nasty too.

    I don't like first pitch swinging anyway, but you can't do that in such a situation

    Ozzie has to at least see a pitch there. And I agree that Riley needs to go down and Duvall brought up.

    Why was Riley hitting with 2 runners on base and 2 outs vs a very good closer?? Braves had 2 LHH(Mac and Inciarte) and a switch hitter(Camargo). still available.

    This has to rank as the worst game ever managed by Snit. Did this game open AA's eyes?? Riley doesn't belong in Atl and Snit is a poor game manager.
